A MESS OF BLUES

THE GIRL OF MY BEST FRIEND

This was the last Elvis Presley single to be released in the UK as a regular shellac 78, and was only available by special order, there may have only been 100 copies ever issued, as by then the market had nearly totally changed over to vinyl 45s.


THE RECORD ITSELF ENTERED THE UK CHARTS 28 JULY 1960

HIGHEST POSITION - #2

WEEKS IN CHART - 18 WEEKS

UK RCA 1194 

CONDITION  - Vg

loads of scuffs marks and small scratches but both sides play strongly

there is a small rim nick on the mess of blues side which doesn't go into the grooves and does not affect play at all - see the enhanced picture

GREAT 1960 ELVIS MEGA-RARITY ON 78!!

HARDLY EVER SHOWS UP!
